Dio (band)

"You are the strongest chain And not just some reflection So never hide again"

"Between the velvet lies There's a truth that's hard as steel The vision never dies Life's a never ending wheel"

"And it's a given rule That we're all fools And need to have a little sin"

"Looking inside of yourself You might see someone you don't know Maybe it's just what you need Letting the river in you flow"

"Don't talk to strangers Cause they're only there to do you harm Don't write in starlight 'Cause the words may come out real Don't hide in doorways You may find the key that opens up your soul Don't go to Heaven cause it's really only Hell"

"Never tell a secret with your eyes It's the eyes that let you down Tell a little truth with many lies It's the only way I've found"

"If your circle stays unbroken Then you're a lucky man 'Cause it never, never, never has for me In the palace of the virgin Lies the chalice of the soul And it's likely you might find the answer there"

"Do your demons Do they ever let you go? When you've tried, do they hide deep inside? Is it someone that you know?"

"Shame on the night For places I've been and what I've seen For giving me the strangest dreams But you never let me know just what they mean"

"We pray to someone But when it's said and done It's really all the same With just a different name"

"We'll know for the first time If we're evil or divine We're the last in line"

"Two eyes from the east It's the angel or the beast And the answer lies Between the good and bad"

"Living inside your mind Who knows the things you'll find There could be hell or rainbows"

"You've got some stairs to Heaven, you may be right I only know in my world, I hate the light"

"Do you watch, do you see, do you know the people in me I'm the bite, I'm the bark, I'm the scream Are you poor, are you sure, are you holy, are you pure I can tell you tales you just might not believe"

"It's the call of the city The way that blacks pretty to the purest heart Its places of pleasure They promise you treasure if you fly And then there goes the soul of you and I"

"When there's thunder, there should be rain But it don't always follow the rule And is the wise man always right? No he can play the fool"

"Each day you hear the sand As it moves and whispers Come and sail on my golden sea Maybe one day you'll be just like me And that's free"

"Whenever you dream you're holding the key It opens the door to let you be free"

"We are sunlight We can sparkle and shine And our dreams are what we're made of"

"Don't look behind Cause a tear that never dies Can only make you blind"

"Love can be a whisper But pain will always Shout to you"

"You never sing for pleasure You only make the sounds You never feel the magic 'Cause you think the world is round"

"Now it's a matter of mind You know you can be free forever So the next time someone points a gun at youSay "Shoot, shoot I don't care.""

"Do you like the dark? Do you like the way it moves? Do you come alive when neon kills the sun?"

"The night has a thousand eyes But he moves in only places Where the eyes can never be"

"We are the innocent We are the damned We were caught in the middle of the madness Hunted by the lion and the lamb"

"We are - evil And we are all divine Creations of the mindI see - clearly Who's behind the wall Yes, I can see us all"

"Pretend that all you really feel is pain Just hide behind some sorrow How sad but you'd do it all again Nobody changes 'round here"

"You can hide in a circle It's a way to survive Be another number At least you'd be aliveOr you can ride with the gypsy He can take you to hell And the answer's screaming In a voice you know so well"

"When you move to the rhythm of shadows You can hide from the heat of the sun 'Cause if you dance to the beat of the darkness You burn before the fire's begun Then comes the night, you come alive"

"In the night you're the song and the singer You can choose what the band's gonna play Write the words under cover of moonlight, oh Make some magic with the things that you say Together we can kill the day"

"There's no back door to heaven Just a front door to hell, oh In this corner of the world"

"So here is my confession: It's the only broken rule Sometimes I crawl inside of me Where I can't be the fool On Strange Highways"

"Oh, neon names play neon games Showing it to the public I hate you and you hate me And everybody smiles So money talks and no-one walks But everybody's crawling Golden rags and body bags Evilution"

"Give me a choice between pleasure and pain I choose pain"

"Pretty faces, young and clean Watching you from magazines All they want is something more Kill the King and then we'll crown the whore"

"This is your life This is your time What if the flame Won't last forever?This is your here This is your now Let it be magical"

"Live don't preach it If you can't don't teach it Accidental God loves heavy metal So I know he must want me"

"We have examined the manuscript. The information is complete, but does not conform to logical patterns. Flesh cannot be mutated into stone and remorphed back to the body once again. Continue the investigation with special attention given to one word. Magica!"

"I love the night So many shadows Unholy light Putting out the spark Leave 'em in the dark - forever"

"Don't care which god you follow Whose promises you swallow"

"Welcome to sun down Welcome to the dark Could it be that evil has heroes?"

"Concerning the inhabitants of otherworld There are many similarities to be found Parallel to our own society The individual must be absorbed The collective must be as one"

"No, don't believe with only eyes Speak to the blind 'cause they see Truth is just a circle, spinning round Until it meets the lies then dies"

"Require, explanation, What is love? Who is love? When is love? Where is love? Why is love?"

"Now we understand All traces of Magica must be eliminated Infection, infection Delete Delete Delete"

"Kneel and behold your new king Digital dreams And wonderful things to tease youSmall gods with electrical hearts And it all will end Time to be killing the dragon"

"We bless the beautiful Let us forgive you for your sins These must be holy ones How could we believe they'd let us in"

"If they take away your song You can finally hear the voices Of the ones that don't belongIn the face of the rising wind We all sing Gloria Is there flame without fire Most unlikely"
